IITA webinar Depositions Made Easy (presented in Spanish)

Description: One of the most common types of assignments in legal and quasi-legal settings, the deposition, is also one of the interpreting situations which poses the most challenges. Take the mystery and angst out of a “depo”. Break it down into its simplest components and explore the techniques which will allow you to master this format. We will examine various types of depositions from a practical point of view. We will take a look at the parties and techniques involved in a deposition and discuss its typical progression. We will also provide examples of some challenging situations and suggest possible solutions. Finally, we will explore some business considerations regarding this type of assignment.
